Abstract
Documentation of historic buildings, not only in Slovakia, is often chaotic, incomplete, and the information is unclear. Managers of historic buildings and monuments offices preserve historical and building information mainly in text documents, which are fragmented and unstructured. The aim of this article is to propose a consistent data structure in the form of a data model that will enable the systematic classification and management of specific data on the historic buildings. The model also makes it possible to identify which types of data are relevant for different user groups and supports more efficient evidence, analysis, and utilization of information in decision-making processes. The developed data model reflects the interconnection of several entities, such as Building, Architecture, Technical Specifications, Legal Protection, and Economic Data. The proposed approach provides a basis for the digitization and integration of data on historical objects, contributes to improved renovation planning, and offers a framework for more efficient decision-making in the field of cultural heritage protection.
